    Queer(Y)Ing Quaintness: Destabilizing Atlantic Canadian Identity Through Its Theatre

    QUEER(Y)ING QUAINTNESS: DESTABILIZING ATLANTIC CANADIAN IDENTITY THROUGH ITS THEATRE LUKE BROWN Thesis submitted to the University of Ottawa in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Master of Arts degree in Theatre Theory & Dramaturgy Department of Theatre Faculty of Graduate Studies University of Ottawa © Luke Brown, Ottawa, Canada, 2019 Brown ii Abstract The Atlantic Canadian provinces (Newfoundland, New Brunswick, Prince Edward Island, and Nova Scotia) have long been associated with agricultural romanticism. Economically and culturally entrenched in a stereotype of quaintness (Anne of Green Gables is just one of many examples), the region continuously falls into a cycle of inferiority. In this thesis, I argue that queer theory can be infused into performance analysis to better situate local theatre practice as a site of mobilization. Using terms and concepts from queer geographers and other scholars, particularly those who address capitalism (Gibson-Graham, Massey), this research outlines a methodology of performance analysis that looks through a queer lens in order to destabilize normative assumptions about Atlantic Canada. Three contemporary performances are studied in detail: Christian Barry, Ben Caplan, and Hannah Moscovitch's Old Stock: A Refugee Love Story, Ryan Griffith's The Boat, and Xavier Gould‘s digital personality ―Jass-Sainte Bourque‖. Combining Ric Knowles' "dramaturgy of the perverse" (The Theatre of Form 1999) with Sara Ahmed's "queer phenomenology" (Queer Phenomenology 2006) allows for a thorough queer analysis of these three performances. I argue that such an approach positions new Atlantic Canadian performances and dramaturgies as sites of aesthetic and semantic disorientation. Building on Jill Dolan's "utopian performatives" (Utopia in Performance 2005), wherein the audiences experience a collective "lifting above" of normative dramaturgical structures, my use of "queer phenomenology" fosters a plurality of unique perspectives.

Greek and Roman Textiles and Dress Writer By merging the study of Greek religion and the study of textiles, the current study illustrates how textiles are, indeed, central materialisations of Greek cult, by reason of their capacity to accentuate and epitomize aspects of identity, spirituality, position in the religious system, by their forms as links between the maker, user, wearer, but also as key material agents in the performance of rituals and communication with the divine.

    Island-Wide Celebrations for National Acadian Day 2016 to Take Place August 12Th-15Th Weekend; Souris to Host

    Press Release For Immediate Publication Island-wide Celebrations for National Acadian Day 2016 to take Place August 12th-15th Weekend; Souris to Host SUMMERSIDE (P.E.I.) – Friday, August 8th, 2016 – The president of la Société Saint-Thomas-d’Aquin (SSTA), Guy Labonté, invites one and all to join the Acadian and francophone community of P.E.I. in celebrating National Acadian Day activities which will take place all across the Island on the weekend of August 12th-15th. The SSTA wishes a wonderful National Acadian Day to all! In 1881, at the first Convention of the Acadians, it was decided that August 15th would thereafter be observed as National Acadian Day. This day was chosen for many reasons, namely because as a distinct people, Acadians deserve to have a day of recognition; the later summer date does not conflict with seed-sowing commitments; and it coincides with the Assumption of Mary, patron saint of Acadians. Souris, this year’s host Region – provincial celebrations – Saturday, August 13th to Sunday, August 14th : La Société Saint-Thomas-d’Aquin, in collaboration with le Comité Acadien et Francophone de l'Est, invites the public to a number of free activities in the name of National Acadian Day and le Festival Acadien from August 13th to 14th. Saturday, August 13th, there will be a traditional Kitchen Party from 6 to 9 p.m. Cover is $5 per person and includes access to concerts featuring Island musicians Anastasia DesRoches, Mylène Ouellette, JJ Chaisson & Les étoiles de l'Est. There will also be traditional Acadian dishes such as fricot (Acadian chicken soup) and an Acadian roll.

    Raising the Bar: The Reciprocal Roles and Deviant Distinctions of Music and Alcohol in Acadiana by © Marion MacLeod A dissertation submitted to the School of Graduate Studies in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Ethnomusicology Memorial University of Newfoundland June, 2013 St. John 's, Newfoundland ABSTRACT The role of alcohol in musical settings is regularly relegated to that of incidental by­ stander, but its pervasive presence as object, symbol or subject matter in Acadian and Cajun performance contexts highlights its constructive capacity in the formation of Acadian and Cajun musical worlds. Individual and collective attitudes towards alcohol consumption implicate a wide number of cultural domains which, in this work, include religious display, linguistic development, respect for social conventions, and the historically-situated construction of identities. This research uses alcohol as an interpretive lens for ethnomusicological understanding and, in so doing, questions the binaries of marginal and mainstream, normal and deviant, sacred and profane, traditional and contemporary, sober and inebriated. Attitudes towards alcohol are informed by, and reflected in, all ofthese cultural conflicts, highlighting how agitated such categorizations can be in lived culture. Throughout the dissertation, I combine the historical examples of HatTy Choates and Cy aMateur with ethnographic examinations of culturally-distinct perfonnative habits, attitudes toward Catholicism, and compositional qualities. Compiling often incongruous combinations of discursive descriptions and enacted displays, my research suggests that opposition actually confirms interdependence. Central to this study is an assertion that levels of cultural competence in Cajun Louisiana and Acadian Nova Scotia are uneven and that the repercussions of this unevenness are musically and behaviourally demonstrated.

Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106-1346 Abstract Mark Monaghan Coats of Many Colours: Dyeing and Dyeworks in Classical and Hellenistic Greece In the past, craft production in Classical and Hellenistic Greece has been studied mainly from a technological or social perspective. On the other hand, the study of ancient economies has largely neglected the role of craft production in favour of issues such as the nature of ancient economies, mechanisms for the exchange of goods, and the roles of agricultural production and slavery in economic activity. In this study I hope to have redressed this by looking at dyeing activity from an economic and social perspective. I have used a range of archaeological and historical evidence to build up a picture of the way dyeing (and by extension craft production) fitted into the subsistence strategies of the Classical and Hellenistic Greek household.

    Textile Tools and Production at a Mycenaean Secondary Centre

    Textile Tools and Production at a Mycenaean Secondary Centre By Max K. MacDonald B.A., Greek and Roman Studies, University of Victoria, 2015 A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF ARTS in the Department of Greek and Roman Studies © Max MacDonald, 2017 All rights reserved. This thesis may not be reproduced in whole or in part, by photocopy or other means, without the permission of the author. ii Supervisory Committee Supervisor: Dr. Brendan Burke, (Department of Greek and Roman Studies) Departmental Member: Dr. Alejandro Sinner, (Department of Greek and Roman Studies) Abstract: This thesis is a study of textile production in the Late Bronze Age, using new evidence uncovered by excavations at Ancient Eleon in Boeotia, Greece. Textile production is a nearly forgotten art. To the Mycenaeans of the Greek Late Bronze Age (ca. 1700-1100 BCE) textiles were nearly a form of currency, and a symbol of power. This thesis begins by examining the Mycenaean administration of textile production, which was systematically controlled by the palatial centres of Greece and Crete. Linear B documents record resources and workers under palatial control, and the amounts of cloth that they were expected to produce. The Mycenaean palace at Thebes was the administrative centre that controlled the region of eastern Boeotia, including sites such as Eleon. No document directly links textile production at Eleon to Thebes, but other Theban tablets and the two sites’ close proximity suggest a similar relationship to other Mycenaean centres and their dependents. Usually, ancient textiles from Greece do not survive in the archaeological record.
